How often is there a general election in Britain?

Saturday, September 29th, 2007

General elections are held at least every five years. However not all Parliaments run for the whole five years, and a general election may be held before this period is up. In the event of a government having a small majority the election may well take place much earlier. For example, the general election of [...]

I have a pet fish but my fish won’t eat anymore. How do I make it eat again?

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

 
I have had this problem before and here are a few things to think about…
1. Is your fish too cold? Bettas are tropical fish that like temperatures above 75 degrees. Sometimes, especially in winter, they get cold and lethargic. Keep them in a warmer area in the house for better results.
2. Is your fish getting [...]
